YotaPhone 2 which is available in the U.K. and other parts of the world is launching in United States via an IndieGoGo campaign, TechTimes reported.

YotaPhone is known for its dual display. The smartphone includes both a 1080p full color display as well as an e-Ink display, allowing users to check basic information/notification without using the same power as the full display.

"The future of smartphones is always-on displays allowing users to stay connected without turning off the real world and disrupting the people around you," said YotaPhone in a statement. "The next generation YotaPhone takes this totally innovative concept in smartphones and makes it even better. Now, with two full-touch displays, the next generation YotaPhone is twice as smart, twice as useful and twice as beautiful."

The device is expected to be sold for $600 when its IndieGoGo campaign is launched, and it is currently only available in black. The company plans to sell a white version later on, however it won't be available until late summer, TechTimes reported.

The IndieGoGo campaign is expected to launch this spring. Eventually the device will be made available at vendors like Best Buy.
